HOUSEHOLD HELPS
To remove paint from a dress take
a camel-hair brush, dip the point of
it in turpentine, and just damp the
parts that are stained. Let garment
dry, and then rub briskly, when the
paint will fall off in a dust If it does
not come off repeat the operation.
Blocks of camphor dispersed in all
corners of damp rooms in a new
house will effectually banish damp in
a very short time, even when fires
have proved ineffectual. They should
be simply laid on paper, or on the
bare shelves of a damp room or linen
closet. The blocks gradually decrease
in size, and when they finally dis
appear should be replaced until their
purpose is served.
Some people' place a small bag of
unslaked lime inside the piano to keep
the damp away. This prevents the
wires from rusting, and keeps the
1 piano in good condition
